schumer. later, u.s. and foreign diplomats discuss the new trade agreement between the u.s., mexico, and canada. gentleman from new york is recognized for one minute without objection, so ordered. >> mr. speaker, if this bill passes, we will add a fourth r to the curriculum of our schools, reading, writing, arithmetic, and religion. some of the opponents to this very --e wrought up a brought up a very legitimate objection. students should be allowed to bring a bible and discuss religion in their schools, but this bill goes much further. it would allow three students to get together and invite devil worship, sun young moon, or any other called into their school and it could not be stopped. it would allow holy communion or other prayer services as long as they are student initiated. i cannot yield. i have only one minute. the founders of the republic. , webster, clay, calhoun, debated until they were blue in the face. >> that video was new york representative charles schumer in one of his first

is now senator schumer, no longer representative schumer. he beat senator al d'amato, longtime republican senator from new york. here he is from 2016. this is an interview c-span did for our documentary, the senate, conflict and compromise. >> it takes a while to get the rhythm of this place. it's a different kind of institution. people say it's like the house and it's not at all. the house is not like the house. someone once described the house as a barrel of crabs and when one finally gets his claw over the edge of the barrel, six others reach up to pull him back. the senate is not like that. because it is smaller, more collegial, has these great traditions, you get along with people, and the idea is to get along with people. the idea is to work well with your colleagues. bipartisanship, at least in name, is present. >> what do you hear? wax that sums up what chuck schumer is all about in the senate. what he's famous for his cutting deals in the house jim. one of his most famous tactics is telling the press what republicans really think ba

schumer. sen. schumer: thank you, mr. chairman. when the founding fathers designed the government of this country, they realized there would be rare and crucial times in history when it would the necessary to break into the regular rule of order of how our government works to pull the nation out of crisis and in fact >> watching that clip and the previous clip from waco made me understand why schumer's mother was so disappointed that after he graduated from harvard law school he decided not to get a job with a law firm and make a lot of money in new york. he decided to run for assembly. that disappointed her. she thought he would've been a great lawyer, and he would've been a brilliant litigator. that's on display in those clips. watching how his mind works, it's really impressive. he breaks down the articles of impeachment and says the only one that has any bite to it is the perjury charge where he testified under oath. he prevaricate it, he misled under oath. you might have him there. but if you talk to the american people, is th

that meeting was demanded by chuck schumer. much has been written, perhaps most authoritatively in bob woodward's book, about just how eneducable president trump is. sources inside the white house have told woodward and others that it is impossible to educate the president. and much of the public knows that. and senator schumer's letter seems to deliberately play off of that public knowledge, that the president cannot be educated. the president proved that once again today with his report on the meeting in which dan coats and the director of the cia gina haspel tried to educate him. "just concluded a great meeting with my intel team in the oval office, who told me that what they said on tuesday at the senate hearing was mischaracterized by the media and we are very much in agreement on iran, isis, north korea, et cetera. their testimony was distorted." it is theoretically possible to mischaracterize and distort what happened in a senate hearing. and that is why the senate keeps transcripts of all of their hearings and almost ev

this morning he tweeted at chuck schumer, i see schumer. i don't know what the use of the last name means. he's criticizing my state of the union speech, he's upset he didn't win the senate after spending a fortune like he thought he would. >> i think we should pay very close attention to what white house aides say. they're talking about ending the politics of resistance and retribution. that is almost exclusively about democrats, what the white house wants democrats to do. there's little we have heard about what the president is going to do. that's why what he says tonight is only one part of the equation. the other part is the follow through. the challenge for president trump is he can lay out what he wants to accomplish, but there is a lack of trust, not just among democrats but also republicans don't know if they can count on what he says being actually true, the next day or the day after that and i think that the politics of the wall is really important. there is nothing that can be done in washington until this issue is resolved and i

and chuck schumer was at this meeting as well. they insisted that these bipartisan negotiations, the so-called conference committee, which is the way legislation is supposed to go on which are going on over border security, they insisted that they see some progress, they hear progress from the negotiators. i will tell you that other people are less rosie about those negotiations. they are looking at that. >> very interesting. thanks very much for that report. where is this heading? >> what dana described is that donald trump is going to walk into the house chamber tonight with a new reality. it's the visual nancy pelosi hanging over his shoulder. but she also has some political juice right now. her numbers are on the rise. her favorability numbers are showing 51% slim majority want the country to be led in the direction by the congressional democrats versus 40% who want it to be put in the direction by donald trump. she's got the political juice right now. how he deals with that tonight, not an overt acknowledgement, but how he de

regarding pelosi and schumer, he voted ok for israel to have a wall. anyway, both these people, pelosi and schumer, been in for years, decades that have been around. what have they left us with? thank you for your time and attention. host: do you want to talk about president trump relationship with chuck schumer? guest: it is an interesting one. when he first came and to office, president trump, we thought these are two guys even though they have different policy views they might get along. they are two new yorkers. they might speak the language. for a while in the beginning it did seem like they could get along. obviously senator schumer is not running the senate. that is senator mcconnell, republican. we thought they might strike deals. then it kind of blew up. this is one of the things that struck a deal on, a border security package for daca, so dreamers could get some protections. then that kind of blew up and did not have been partly because the president changed his mind on that. or so the democrats say. i don't think they had such a chummy rela

what schumer and sanders are suggesting is rank corporate socialism. they want to drive companies to do things that are not in those companies or their owners self-interests. so, if you look at business investment, that is up 19% as a result of jobs act and the tax cut. it is, it is investing of people, it is investing in pay raises, investing in equipment and research and development. those things are actually happening without the long arm of the government insisting they do those things. call it what it is. connell: showing proposals on the screen, sanders and schumer put forward, requirements in order to buyback stock, minimum wage of 15 bucks, on and on. to your point, definitely far left of center ideas. from your concern, maybe those ideas seem in some of the public polling that we've seen recently to be almost gaining momentum, be popular with the american public, more popular than recent years, does that concern you? >> sure it does. dumb ideas are still dumb ideas. bad ideas are still bad ideas even if public opinion survey at a time or two m

able to resist the temptation to swipe back at schumer saying, "i see schumer is already criticizing my state of the union speech even though he hasn't seen it yet. he's just upsethe didn't win the senate after spending a fortune like he thought he would. too bad we weren't given more credit for the senate win by the media. chuck schumer responding in kind saying, thanks for watching my speech, but you must have missed this line. even more empty than his policy promises are president trump's calls each year for unity. #stateofthe uni #stateoft #stateoftheunion this will be the first time the president has spoken in a chamber that is divided in control -- in which congress is divided in control so nancy pelosi, the speaker of the house, will be sitting just over the president's shoulder during the entire speech tonight. >> so him in chuck schumer are going back and forth, bernie and lloyd blankfein are going back and forth. >> a lot of beefing on tuesday >> let's bring in sarah factgen. also joining me here on set is stephen seelig, former secretary of commerce of international trade

>> that is mama-to-be amy schumer having fun feeding the giraffe. she has been open, and she's turning it into comedy gold for her new netflix special. >> i'm pregnant. [ cheers and applause ] >> she's making pregnancy funny, but is amy going after meghan markle for the way she's always touching that royal baby bump? >> i hate women who start to act, like, really precious. you don't stop being you, you know? you don't stop working or drinking, like, you -- [ laughter ] >> amy recently canceled the remainder of her comedy tour due the complications for hyperemesis which is extreme morning sickness with nausea and vomiting. in her special, she plays it up and laughs. >> if you enjoy being pregnant, i just hope your car flips over. [ laughter ] that's -- that's what i wish for you. >> kate middleton also suffered from the condition during her pregnancy, but luckily it has noted meghan. she and harry returned from a three-day visit to morocco. >> hi. >> it's a long time since i have been in a classroom. >> amy schumer isn't the only one who can joke abo

-mexico border.house speaker nancy pelosi (puh-loh'-see) and senate minority leader chuck schumer said friday they'll take action "in the congress, in the courts, and in the public."they say trump's decision to declare an emergency is unlawful. they say it would "shred the constitution" by usurping congress' power to control spending.white house officials say some of the money would come from military construction projects. pelosi and schumer say trump would be using money needed "for the security of our military and our nation."democrats can file lawsuits and force congressional votes to block trump's money transfers. trump could veto the legislation should it pass.trump says he expects legal challenges. president donald trump says he expects legal challenges to his decision to declare a national emergency to erect barriers between the u.s. and mexico but says he'll be vindicated.trump announced friday that he has signed the appropriate paperwork to declare an emergency on the border so he can build a wall. in a sing-songy tone of voice, trump then described how the decision will be c

we'll hear from mitch mcconnell and chuck schumer on the next steps shortly. president trump saying he is unhappy with the deal. wall street is assuming he will ultimately sign it that news put as spark in the markets early, right? we open higher, shifting wall street to the next major headline, potential trade deal with china. their horribled economy could actually be a problem with beijing delivering on any promises they make. meanwhile the market cheering news that 7.3 million jobs are open in america right now.

chuck schumer and nancy pelosi have made it a decision long ago that was their only pathway to keeping their jobs. it worked for them so far. they're still there. but it is terrible for the country. there is no thought given to anything the president said, no real consideration. it is just no, no, we saw it again with naomi -- lou: i'm sorry. >> all the confirmation fights. there are people just looking for things to be against him. because politically it is still profitable for them to oppose everything that's trump. lou: it is profitable because there is a closed feedback loop provided interestingly enough by the national left-wing media. let's take a look. it, two examples of out right lies, distortion and hatefulness, on the part of the left. let's take a look at these two narratives, offered up for consumption of the left. >> i think we owe the lieutenant governor the same sort of thorough investigation that was not done in the case of brett kavanaugh and those allegations. >> if you think african-american relationships are immoral, if you think gay relationships are immoral, you

he has known chuck schumer for literally years. so, i get what he is trying to do, trying to inoculate. i'm not sure you can ever inoculate with them. charles: you brought up the border wall, national emergency is big in the news now. here is what is interesting, really i'm floored by this, according to the national emergencies act of 1976 they're supposed to expire every year but congress has to get together and decide whether to officially let them expire or to extend them. they're supposed to meet every six months. they haven't met in 40 years on any of them. that is why 30 are live going back to carter. all of sudden it is creating a national crisis. these same national emergencies that congress never even bothered to get together to decide whether or not they should exist 40 years later, now it is the end of the world! >> to me it is just crazy and i get the idea of separation of powers but reality is, congress delegated this authority and there is not carefully guarded its authority. you know, charles, if you really don't lik

schumer is already criticizing my state of the union speech even though hasn't seen it yet. he's just upset that he didn't win the senate, after spend ag a fortune. that tweet came just minutes after senator chuck schumer was making a floor speech today that was airing on c-span and this is what he had to say ahead of the president's state of the union address tonight. >> the president will say the state of our union is strong, but the american people know the state of the trump administration is in chaos. >> reporter: and later on, brooke, chuck schumer said the president is going to be a hypocrite if he calls for unity tonight and the white house says the president is going to find -- going to try to find common ground as you heard sarah sanders there. the white house expects the president to lay out his case for a border wall, something our reporting shows the white house increasingly preparing themselves for the president to declare a national emergency and bypass congress even though that's not what democrats want and even some of the president's own party have been exp
